Question 1: Determine the rank of the matrix A = [[1, 2, -1], [-2, -4, 2], [3, 6, -3]]
We use row operations to reduce the matrix to row echelon form (REF):
Step 1: Use R1 to eliminate below pivot:
R2 -> R2 + 2R1 -> [0, 0, 0]
R3 -> R3 - 3R1 -> [0, 0, 0]
Final matrix:
[1 2 -1]
[0 0 0]
[0 0 0]
=> Only one non-zero row => Rank = 1
Question 2: Write down the eigen values of A = [[2, 0], [0, -1]]. What are the eigen values of P^-1 A P
Since A is diagonal, its eigenvalues are the diagonal entries: 2 and -1.
Because P^-1 A P is similar to A, it has the same eigenvalues: 2 and -1.
Question 3: State Cayley-Hamilton theorem.
Every square matrix satisfies its own characteristic equation.
If det(lambdaI - A) = 0 is the characteristic equation, then substituting A into it gives p(A) = 0.
Question 4: Find the sum and product of the eigen values of A = [[3, 1, 4], [0, 2, 6], [0, 0, 5]]
Matrix is upper triangular => Eigenvalues are 3, 2, 5.
Sum = 10, Product = 30

Question 5: Solve the following system:y + z - 2w = 02x - 3y - 3z + 6w = 24x + y + z - 2w = 4
From Eq1: y = -z + 2w
Sub into Eq2: x = 1
Eq3 is satisfied for any z and w.
General solution:
x = 1, y = -z + 2w, z = a, w = b
Question 6: Find the eigen values and eigen vectors of the matrix [[-2, 2, -3], [2, 1, -6], [-1, -2, 0]]
Using characteristic polynomial, we find eigenvalues: -3, -1, 3.
Eigenvectors computed by solving (A - lambdaI)v = 0 for each lambda.

Question 7: Find the value of lambda and µ for which the system has:2x + 3y + 5z = 97x + 3y - 2z = 8
Check for conditions based on rank of coefficient and augmented matrix:
- Unique solution: ranks equal and full rank
- No solution: inconsistent system
- Infinite: ranks equal but less than number of variables
Question 8: Using Gauss elimination method, find the solution of the system:x+y-z=9, 8y+6z = -6, -2
Augmented matrix and row operations give:
x = -7, y = 0, z = -1
